so Mays...

There's actually McCovey and Cepeda statues as well.

But we took our photo in front of Mays because I always thought this lyric was a clever play on Willie Mays:

"The statue's crying too and well he may"

I always assumed everyone picked up on this.

My God Help The Girl DVD kickstarter finally arrived today, there is a reason I won't ever back a film project on kickstarter again... Me thinks Stuart and co got in over there head with some of what was on offer.

What is your problem with God Help the Girl?

The film itself is fine, it's just that the Kickstarter wasn't exactly a positive experience.  I.e. the original delivery date for it was June 2013.  But due to distribution deals they signed it is now only being sent out. It also means some are now finally getting other perks paid for in Feb 2012. A bonus disc I was supposed to get is now being provided as digital downloads.  Plus, there was a very long silence about the status of the project after the movie was released.

Basically, I won't back any movies on Kickstarter, as final distribution is determined by many forces, much different than say getting an finished album. 

I backed another movie and it turns out they needed even more money to secure musical rights before they could release it.

I backed Super Troopers 2 knowing full well that it's going to be a shit show.  I'll be shocked if I ever get my digital copy.

What's everyone doing for parking at this show? Should we start a new thread?

I'm not sure I understand what is special about parking. I found parking much easier than, say Black Cat or D.A.R.

If it was not for the parking and the people, I would go to more shows in DC.

man I remember the good old days where you could always find a spot within one block of the black cat any night of the week and Yum's was your only option for food

...well of course you had to make sure you had 'the club' and detachable face to your radio too

so you want shows without people or without people from DC?
